I paid about £3.50 for Doom 2016 last week and around £12 for eternal, having not played a doom game since Doom 3’s launch. I’m enjoying the 2016 one and will look forward to Eternal in a week or 3 once I finish that. what I won’t do is pay £70 for a doom game. I might consider a games for windows sub to get it that way, but that remains to be seen.
I’ll throw another recommendation behind Karakeep. The fact I can share a page fromy mobile browser or use a browser extension on a laptop/desktop is excellent.
Another great thing for me is the oidc support so I can log in without passwords and rely on my Pocket ID instance and log in using a passkey. (Authelia, Authentic, Keycloak and similar identity providers would work too)
I’ve been using matrix for quite a while now and I’m very happy with it.
The thing to be aware of though is that it takes quite a bit of work to get started, but once you’ve got it up and running it doesn’t need much coddling. It’s got video calling built into it now and can be entirely web based if you want it to be. I have all of my signal, WhatsApp and SMS messages being brodged over through it which is handy. I’ve also got a discord bridge set up which will bring all DMs and let’s me bridge any of the servers I want to bring over.
it’s been my one app for communicating with anyone that wants to talk to me on any IM platform I use, as well as any of the federated rooms and spaces I want to access from other home servers I want to work with.
Edit: I also recently added authentication via oidc which was great as now I don’t need to worry about passwords as I just authenticate with passkeys on most of my self hosted services.
I think the Subway in Glasgow would have a moderate chance of at least some people clapping.
Oh, thanks for getting back with the overview. I appreciate it and will shortly be doing the swipe to mark as read once I find the option.
Mark as read on scroll will be great when that comes out too as that’ll work nicely for me.
I’m a fellow mbin convert myself. When the great exodus happened, I set up a Lemmy instance, but I took a 4 month break from it for reasons I don’t recall. When I tried to spin that instance back up it wouldn’t pull in new posts and didn’t support oidc, but I saw that mbin did, so I switched to that and was pretty happy with its look and feel.
Writing this message on the interstellar app just now. My only minor gripe is that there’s no way to mark something as read with a single tap that I’ve found. (Got to long press and mark as read, but I’ll accept that I may have missed something)
That’s the one, sorry, shows how much attention I’ve paid over the years since games for windows was a thing.
